I exposed myself
to your radiant qualities,
becoming translucent
and rather unstable.

The virus you
infected me with
has broken down walls,
clogged arteries and
given me a weakened heart.

I am biding my time
until this disease
shuts down my
vital organs and
renders me into
a vegetative state.

I suffocate from within.

This is beautiful, yet so irreversably raw that you cannot help but to allow this piece to be etched into your conciousness. It's a piece that is completely true, yet brilliant. It relates to so much in a way that makes it impossible to go unnoticed. I am insanely jealous.
